DIY (Drone It Yourself) v1.0

The DIY (Drone It Yourself) v1.0 kit offers you the opportunity to turn any object into a drone*, simply by attaching four motors and a control unit – no technical know-how needed. The kit consists of multiple parts that are easy to assemble and can be attached to a wide range of different objects.

For more advanced uses, you can take the original designs and alter the kit by making your own custom clamps or add-ons as needed.

The plastic parts have been 3D printed in ABS. The control unit contains a receiver, four ESCs, a bluetooth module and an OpenPilot CC3D flightcontroller.
Both the original files and the printable STL files are available here.

As requested by some visitors, I’ve made a bill of materials for the kit. The parts mentioned are the ones I’ve used, but you shouldn’t have too much trouble using similar parts. The BOM can be found here.
